This is a cluster that I purchased on ebay and modified in minor ways to make work for a project of mine (Replace the speedo with a dual needle oil temp/oil pressure gauge. If you are interest in that I can give you all the details, code, etc.).
It is not guaranteed to work. I suspect it will, but I have never tested it. I own a brz and I'm in the process of selling it.
Here are the ways I have tinkered with it:
-Desoldered the stepper motor for the speedo. I have since soldered it back. The excess flux is subaru/denso's doing and not my mess. The contacts should be good.
-Disassembled and reassembled everything several times.
-Increased the hole size (by about 1 mm) where the shaft of the stepper comes through the pcb. This did not affect the contacts or lighting in any way. I had to do this to accommodate the specialized stepper motor with two shafts for two needles for my project.
-Cut the shaft off the speedo needle (needed to add a 3d printed shaft to fit the stepper from the project). I have since reglued the shaft to the needle.
Why you might buy this:
-ECU hacking
-Parts for something messed up on yours
-Making a racing sim setup
-Picking up where I left off from my project
-A last ditch effort to replace your speedo on your project.
-To build a clock in
-To hang as decoration in your house/shop/garage/workplace.
